I have searched and been told these clips that hold the stainless trim to the windshield are not available.  Is that true? Does anyone know of any sources?
Thank you,
Don Sylvia

These clips are available at lots of places they are the same as Chevrolet.

Thank you for your response.  The thing that  threw me was that the "pins" on the clips were at an angle and not square to the mounting surface.  The "pins" looked like they might have had threads on them but not threaded.  Does that make any sense?
I looked on e-bay but everything was threaded with a fastener on it.  Do these clips have a specific name so I can identify them? Or are they supposed to be square to the surface and were bent when removed from the car?
Any input is appreciated,
Don Sylvia

THANK YOU, Grant. Found them and they are on order! I know there are several parts that cross over to Chevy, Buick & Pontiac but I didn't think to broaden my search.
Thanks again,
Don Sylvia
